I just worked in Mrs.Spatz classroom and Miss Larrinaga's classroom.
In the sixth grade class we did wire sculpting. I went and bought a 100 feet of wire and cut it into 3-4 foot lengths so all the students could have an equal amount. I think they liked it. Something that I learned was that I should have come in with a few examples. I did make a few while I was with them. This class was assigned to make a wire sculpture that had something to do with Halloween. There did turn out to be some spiders that were neat and a few pumpkins.
In the third grade class I made a giant cardboard house and painted it black. The house had 20 windows and one door cut out of it. Each student was assigned to make one figure/sihlouette to put in the windows and doors. I had a few extra students that were not assigned a window so I put them into designing what they wanted to put in front of the house or in the sky. I will post a picture of how it turned out as soon as I get one. I really liked this project. I think the kids loved it too. It was fun to see what a whole class made in one piece. Thanks for the idea Mrs. Spatz!
